​No gym workout essentials

With the way things are going right now, going to the gym is not the utmost priority. Some people do consider it as a good enough reason to leave the house, but there are plenty of people who think it would be best to stay indoors. To them, we say, well done but also don’t skip out on your workouts! Being stuck indoors is not good enough reason to let the pounds pile on. Working out in the comfort of your own home has never been easier. You can work, work out, sleep and essentially, thrive in the same space. You just need a few things and you’re good to go.

Dedicated area

Make sure there is an area in your house or room that has no other function, except being your workout space. Having a designated workout/exercise area ensures that there is no overlap with your workspace and your living space and helps separate aspects of your day. It also forces you to move from your usual position of being hunched over your computer at your desk.

Exercise mat

The good thing about working out at home is that you don’t really need to invest in a lot of equipment, however, it is a good idea to get yourself a good exercise mat; something strong and colorful preferably. The chances of you using the exercise mat to work out are higher if you have something pretty and colorful to look at!

Free weights

This one is not mandatory, but a good idea nonetheless. You can buy free weights as per your requirements off the Internet (you can get anything on the internet these days) and you can use these to help build those muscles and stay toned overall.

Good music

Again, not essential but a good idea. You need the right motivation to work out and what better than your favorite music to get you going. So, create a playlist on Spotify and make sure to include all the tracks that put you in a happy mood.

Tea

Now this is going to sound strange, but you should make slimming teas a part of your daily routine. Not only will they aid your daily workouts but they also increase your metabolic activity. We recommend the Herbal Slimming Tea with Honey and Lemon, which is caffeine free and tastes delicious. You can buy it here.
